I think it was a massive mistake to build on the pre-commit plugin base. pre-commit is probably the most popular tool for pre-commit hooks but the platform is bad. My main critique is that it mixes tool installation with linting—when you will undoubtedly want to use linters _outside_ of hooks. The interface isn't built with parallelism in mind, it's sort of bolted on but not really something I think could work well in practice. It also uses a bunch of rando open source repos which is a supply chain nightmare even with pinning.

pre-commit considered harmful if you ask me. prek seems to largely be an improvement but I think it's improving on an already awful platform so you should not use it.

I know I am working on a competing tool, but I don't share the same criticism for lefthook or husky. I think those are fine and in some ways (like simplicity) better than hk.

I think really they just need to implement some kind of plug-in or extension framework. Extensions are just not first class citizens but they really should be.

There should be a .gitextensions in the repo that the repo owners maintain just like .gitignores and . gitattributes etc etc. Everything can still be opt in by every user but at least all git clients would be able to know about, pull down, and install per user discretion.

It seems pretty basic in this day and age but it's still a gaping hole. You still need to manually call LFS install for goodness sake.
